Default Dent x 2 Repair $350

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/50880/dent.jpg"></center><p>
$350 (including tax) to get these dents fixed.. is it a good price? Anyone has had similar thing happened?
How much would a dealer bodyshop ask for..?
Didn't have time to ask around the city.. so..

Thanks!!

Default I got a dent on my hood (not the TT) fixed for $150

The dent was going upward... I shut the hood on the headlight cover that I forgot to reinstall. It's hard to explain the coverage of the dent, but it was a crease approx. an inch or so long, with the area around it raised to reach the crease. The top ridge was up maybe an 1/8" or so.

Keep in mind for my repair, they didn't need to remove or go around any panels... just pop the hood.

Default Thanks for the pic... ironically I had VERY similar issues (more)

after I hit the garage on the way out one morning. They replaced the fender and painted it for exactly $364.00. Sounds like your quote is in line.

Default Yep, or ask them to investigate the cost of a new fender...

the labor to fix it may make a new one a better solution for you with a similar cost. Good luck and let us know what happens.
